just got a tune up when I picked it up it was suring and would die....but would start right back up, it also would die when you turned the wheel all the way to the left or right. My car has never did that until the tune up...now they are trying to say it might be a dirty valve....hmmmm nope don't think so. Have any ideas? I never had this problem until the tune up...I would appreciate your input...Thanks

Since this work was just done, chances are they bumped a vacuum hose off and created a leak. I would start with that. If nothing is found, the idle air control valve (IAC) can cause these symptoms. It would be the second thing I check. Maybe they disconnected it and forgot to plug it back in.
